Bus Service Charges

The Bus Service Charge will be invoiced for the whole year.  The Bus Service is charged on a cost-recovery basis, and is € 4,040 for two-way journeys and €2,040 for one way only.

Payment and Bank Details

Payments should be made by bank transfer to:

Late payment will incur interest and administration charges as follows:

• 0.5% interest per month is charged on payments outstanding beyond 30 days.
• 0.75% interest per month is charged on all payments outstanding beyond 90 day
• There is a €20 admin charge for each Late Fee letter.
• These letters are normally sent monthly.

Special Needs and Optional Activities such as speech and other therapies, private music lessons and after-school activities, are charged separately. When a child requires individual English as an Additional language (EAL) lessons to help them with the curriculum these are covered by the tuition Fees and there is no separate charge.

We anticipate that all fees quoted above will remain fixed for the school year, but reserve the right to revise fees before the start of any term, should this become necessary.

Parents are responsible for payment of the total sums due, regardless of any subsidies provided by their employer.
